It also requests approval before sensitive actions. ChatGPT Work can utilize plugins for many workplace systems, like Slack and Gmail. OpenAI is also launching Sites in public beta, letting users convert work materials into shareable interactive sites or web apps. On desktop, ChatGPT now includes a built-in browser and Computer Use capabilities. This allows it to gather web context and operate through browser-based tools.
